The Global Intelligent Document Processing Market size is expected to reach $4.1 billion by 2027, rising at a market growth of 29.2% CAGR during the forecast period. Intelligent Document Processing (IDP) solutions help in converting unstructured & semi-structured data into structured data which can be used. The core of the digital transformation is the business data, in which approx. 80% of the business data is present in unstructured forms like emails, images, business documents, and PDF documents.
Intelligent document processing is the upgradation of automation, able to capture, extract, and process data from a variety of document formats. It utilizes AI technologies like Computer Vision, natural language processing (NLP), deep learning, and machine learning (ML) to organize, categorize, and obtain relevant data, and authenticate the collected data.
All the unstructured & semi-structured data can be transformed into usable & structured data, offering end-to-end automation to the document-centric business procedure. The RPA-automation procedures would need informed workers to read documents and obtain data for it, without IDP-like solutions. In other words, IDP is the key to unlock the value of RPA.
The increasing digitalization across the world is motivating companies to use a wide variety of technology solutions to simplify the document processing procedure. So, the usage of various digital age technologies like Machine Learning (ML) & Natural Language Processing (NLP) to carry out and simplify document processing is termed as Intelligent Document Processing (IDP).
These technologies help IDP to remove the requirement for human intervention, which earlier depends on human intelligence. IDP is very useful for organizations that have a huge volume of semi-structured & unstructured documents like sales orders, invoices, and customer correspondence, which generally cannot be fully processed by utilizing rules-based automation software.
COVID-19 Impact Analysis
The global Covid-19 pandemic has impacted almost every domain of society, be it individuals or businesses. The imposition of various restrictions like the travel ban, social distancing, lockdowns, and shutdown of industries has adversely impacted several sectors of the business. The work-from-home culture has motivated companies to shift to digital space to carry out better operations, which would fuel the intelligent document processing market in the forecast period.
Intelligent Document Processing solution enables organizations to automate the core business procedures like the automation of the customer delivery process, categorizing incoming credit applications from numerous channels for banks approving loans, clause detection in legal documents, and online verification of identification documents. This pandemic has augmented the usage of intelligent document processing across numerous companies. Owing to the imposed lockdown, employees have restricted or no access to the required physical documents. It further increases the demand for digitization and document automation with intelligent document processing.
